Excellent Guide Makes For Excellent Adventure - I and a friend (60’s with intermediate kayaking experience) went on the kayak adventure leaving from Garret Bay. We had an excellent morning on the water with Justin. Justin was a knowledgeable guide and we learned a bit of history, geology, and more. He is also a super chill, friendly person. It was good to hear that Justin is a highly trained guide including in water rescue. His equipment is superior—actual single person sea kayaks; not sit-on-tops. The kayaks were stable and tracked beautifully. We were fortunate in that Mother Nature gave us perfect weather conditions. It was a great experience. We highly recommend Justin.

Exactly what we wanted - Beautiful day for kayaking! Justin was knowledgeable and a good instructor for us. We went further into Green Bay than we ever had been. He had the right amount of conversation and time for us to just enjoy the quiet of the water. Would book again.

We had the perfect morning and Justin was great explains the history and geology of Door County and Ellison Bay. The kayaks were actual sea kayaks and handled well. I plan on booking with him again.

Highly recommend Kayaking with Justin - We had such a great time on our Whitefish Dunes and Cave Point kayak tour with Justin! He was an excellent guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience enjoyable. We loved learning more about Cave Point and Whitefish Dunes as we paddled, and it was clear how much he cared about the area. His kayaks were top-notch and very comfortable, which made a big difference on the water. One of the things I really appreciated about Justin’s tours is that they are smaller groups. Our tour had only four people plus Justin, which meant a more relaxed, personalized experience. We also started earlier in the morning, which allowed us to avoid the crowds and paddle in calmer water. We even hiked up to the lookout at Whitefish Dunes during the tour, and the views were gorgeous! Overall, I highly recommend taking any tour with Justin. Thank you so much for a great time—we would absolutely go again!

Great Experience! - Justin did an amazing job as our guide! He gave clear a easy to understand instructions for how to kayak, and he was very knowledgeable about the local history and science behind Door County's Lakes and Bluffs! I'd highly recommend avoiding Kayaking tours through local companies and just go with Justin! Your group will have a much better time working with Justin!
